Can I have this done purely for cosmetic reasons?+
Reconstruction is built around health and function, with appearance considered inside that framework. If your concerns are only about looks, an assessment may point towards other, simpler services.
Could veneers or whitening be enough instead?+
They might be, depending on the condition of your teeth, gums and bite. The dentist can compare options after examining you, including whether a large plan is needed at all.
Will I be able to see what my teeth might look like?+
Provisional restorations may be used in some plans to evaluate appearance and bite. Photographs and digital records can also help when options are being communicated.
Why do I have to wait for the visible part?+
Final restorations tend to be more predictable after decay, gum disease and urgent problems have been controlled. Rushing ahead can put the finished work at risk.
Will treatment make my teeth look natural?+
Ask to discuss shape, shade and proportion early, and give feedback whenever provisionals are used. Exact results vary, and no specific look can be promised ahead of time.
